Hi Andry,

RoadNarrows is the US distributor of the Khepera robot.

RoadNarrows is a big advocate of open-source software and we think that Pyro is great. So, if there is a Pyro effort to integrate the Khepera programming environment (e.g. gnu c cross-compiler and tools) so that you can download the code to the robot, we would really like to support it!

We are also distributors of Webots, which is a robot simulator/environment that provides a robot environment  for developing Khepera code in the simulator, debug, test, etc., then allows you to download the code.
It is a well-supported software application, can run on Windows, Linux, Mac, but unfortunately it is expensive and not open-source. (see www.cyberbotics.com or www.roadnarrowsrobotics.com).
There is an old version of the predecessor to Webots, see http://diwww.epfl.ch/lami/team/michel/khep-sim/ , but I have not tried it.

Please let me know if you have any questions,

Best regards, Kim

Dear all Pyro users,

Recently I am looking for a framework which can ease the students in
getting
in the first touch with robot programming. And not long ago I ran across
with Pyro. After going through some information on this framework, I come
to
a conclusion that it doesn't provide, or perhaps not yet, a way to
download
the developed program to the robot. In this case, I am interested in
downloading the program to Kheperas. I need this feature because it is my
aim that the program must run on board the robot.

Thus, I wonder whether this feature is within the list of further
improvement for Pyro? Or if there is any user who has done similar thing,
I'd be very happy to discuss about the idea.

Thank you for your kind attention.
    

Andry,

No, this hasn't been one of our goals for Pyro. But, if you were
interested, we certainly work with you to help you create such a
"compiler". Let us know how we could help you if you decide to pursue
that.

WBR,
